COTTON,STOCK GET ATTENTION OF FEDERATION Farm Bureaus Body Hears of New Marketing Plans, Tax Question. Bn United Press CHICAGO, Dec. 11.—The American Farm Bureau Federation devoted the final session of its tenth annual business meeting here today to discussion of the tax question and the problems of the livestock raiser, the tobacco farmer and the cotton producer. , A detailed report on the application of scientific management through co-operative marketing by cotton farmers was contained in an address prepared by C. O. Moser, Dallas, Tex. Moser’s report, which was to be read at the afternoon session, dealt with co-operative marketing as compared with private marketing. He describes the co-operative plan, ’‘not particularly as a panacea, but as a vehicle by which farmers effectively may organize the marketing operations of their business on the ba§is of equality with industry.” George H. Duncan, New Hampshire tax expert, was to speak on ‘‘Rational Taxation.” His speech dealt with the tax problems of the farmer, analyzing them as being due to under-consumption ra : ler than to overproduction. That the farmer should, put his own house in order before he applies to the government for aid, was the substance of an address by James C. Stone, Lexington, Ky., president of the Burley Tobacco Growers’ Cooperative Association. “You can’t legislate a poor business man into prosperity,” said Stone. C. B. Denman, of Farmington, Mo., oresident of the National Livestock Producers’ Association, explained how business of $150,000,000 annually has been built up by the co-operatives.

‘DESERT SONG’ IS THE REAL ARTICLE Beautiful Music of Sigmund Romberg and the Work of a Large Cast Causes This Show to Deserve Capacity. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN IF there ever was a show that deserved absolute capacity at every performance it is the production of “The Desert Song,” now at English’s. These may sound like big words, but I am sure that visit to this tuneful operetta by Sigmund Romberg will more than prove that I am right. I am taking no chances because I am talking straight from the shoulder. “The Desert Song” is everything that everybody has said about it. I know I heard only praise of this company before it arrived here. It was not quite capacity on the opening night, last night, but this show

is the type that has the qualities which will make people want to go to the theater and then leave rejoicing that a fine evening has been spent. I know that I am going to be asked in what relation is "The Desert Song” to the Big Four—- “ Blossom Time,” “Rose Marie,” “The Student Prince” and “My Maryland.” You know that I have re-

garded “Rose Marie” as my favorite of the Big Four but right now I place “The Desert Song” right by the side of “Rose Marie.” “Rose Marie.” was strong on melody, comedy and new dance formations. “The Desert Song” is strong on melody, comedy and at times the chorus work is stupendous. The great sweep of

Alexander Gray

the score and the magnificent way it is handled by the men of the company is proven by “One Alone” as done by the Red Shadow and the men. Here is a dramatic number with an overwhelming appeal. It is one of the most dramatic numbers that we have had on the stage in years. You will recall that “The Vagabond King” with its great march number had stirring melodies and after you hear “The Desert Song” you will agree that the song, “The Desert Song” is just as powerful. Since I am speaking of melodies, I call attention to “The French Marching Song,” “I Want a Kiss,” “Then You Will Know” and “The Sabre Song” as done by Margot. And the company is more than adequate in putting over all of these melodies. The chorus, especially the men, their voices make a powerful and a most effective ensemble"' One of the best I have heard on tour in years. The company. has been together for a very long time. Alexander Gray is Pierre or the Red Shadow of the Desert. He has a splendid voice, much volume, splendid shad-

ing and a good stage presence. He handles his big numbers with the greatest ease When high notes are demanded they are furnished on the dotted line by Bernice Claire a?

She does a body dance just before the final curtain which is a won derfui test of endurance. She rightly received a marvelous ovation after this number. Sally Sloan makes a cute little Susan. The chief comedy work falls to Bernard Granville and I know of a no more competent person for this important work. Granville knows how to be ridiculous without being a fool. He knows how to get laughs, builds them up until an uproar is the result. In other words you will find no serious objection with any one in the cast. The cast of principals is so important that I will give you the entire list as follows: Sid El Kar, the Red Shadow's Lieutenant Harold Stanton Mindar Larry Lawrence Hassi Albert Baron Benjamin Kidd, Society Correspondent of the Paris Herald Bernard Granville Captain Paul Fortaine ....Donald Douglas Azuri Edna Torrence Sergeant La Vergne .Jack Spiegel Sergeant Du Bussac Thomas Kelly Margot Bon valet Bernice Claire General Birabeau, Governor of a French Moroccan Province Ben Hendricks Pierre Birabeau. his son ...Alexander Gray Susan, his ward Sally Sloan Ethel Electa Kind A1 Ben All, Caid of a Riff Tribe.... John Philip Ryder Clementina, a Spanisch ''lady" Carlotta Miles Neri Grace Carol Hadji Jack Spiegel This does not include the French girls, the soldiers’ wives, servants of Birabeau, soldiers of the, Foreign Legion and members of the Red Shadow’s band, the native dancers and soldiers of Ali. Before I forget it, I want to call attention to the intelligent and vigorous direction of the orchestra under the baton of S'gmund Sanders. He seems to take p’easure in getting the best out of the men in the pit and I am sure that he is a source of much comfort and gratification to all the singers because of his intelligent and helpful cooperation. This man works and he gets results.

I do not hesitate to recommend every minute of “The Desert Song.’’ See it. At English’s all week. n a a STAR ILL BUT BOYS CARRY ON Katherine Boyle and her dancing boys, six in number, are the headliners this week at the Lyric. Miss Boyle was able to make her appearances up to Monday matinee for the first show and then she was too ill to go on. The dancers of her company rapidly put together a rountine with the aid of Abe Hammerschlag and the Lyric orchestra. The act was highly successful even without the expert sendees of the star. The boys of her company are all good individual dancers. Their chair dance is splendid. Os course I can not judge the act in full because of the absence of Miss Boyle, but this I am sure, that she has a bunch of gif tec dancers with her and mighty obliging fellows who saw to, it earnestly that tt e act went on.

how. As you read this, Miss Boyle probably has recovered. Have always been an admirer of Willie Ritchie, known on the stage as the “original tramp cyclist.” He can get more fun out of a bicycle than any other man that I know on the stage. He is an" artist in his line. Lauren and La Dare have a musical offering in which the man plays many instruments. I feel that if some of his comedy was omitted and more real melodies played that the act would be improved. Edyth Bohlman slings a lot of wise remarks to some men in a box during her song numbers. Her melodies are smart. She has the needed personality. Clifton and Brent have a good burlesque on an acrobatic dance offering. Clever. The Six Speeders, whirlwind acrobats, close the show. Good act of the regulation type. The movie feature is “The Lone Wolf’s Daughter,” with Bert Lytell. At the Lyric all week. an tt GOOD BURLESQUE SHOW AT MUTUAL It was evidently “Old Home Night” at the Mutual during the performance, judging from the actions of an enthusiastic front row customer whose appearance showed that he was past the sunny side of 50. This generous old individual

became so enamored of the feminine attractions on the stage that he bought boxes of candy during the intermission and t| isp en sed them freely to several of the women leads of “S oci a 1 Maids,” the current burlesque show on view at this theater. But the show is well able to pro-

vide entertainment without the aid of outside help. Chuck Wilson and Betty Abbott are two clever entertainers. Wilson being able to stage comedy scenes with all the necessary humor neded to make them successful. And when it comes to dancing, Betty Abbott has forgotten tricks that most dancers have yet to learn. Se has ideas all her own, and she uses them to the entire satisfaction of the onlooker.

“Social Maids’’ is an excellent burlesque show and is well staged in all respects; costumes, dances, girls and scenery all being most acceptable. Included among the most important leads are Joe Singer, Bud Abbott, Arthur Jordan, Naomi Wheeler and Helen Coyne. On view at the Mutual. (By J. T. H.) Tonight at the Playhouse, the Indianapolis Little Theatre will present “At Mrs. Beams.’’ The engagement is for the rest of the week.

INTERNATIONAL AIRWAY PLANS ARE ANNOUNCED Project Covers 13,000-Mile Course Linking Two Americas. By Times Special NEW YORK. Dec. ,11.—Projection of a great international air passenger system, extending over thirteen thousand miles in length to link twenty-one nations of the western hemisphere with the United States, and bring North, Central and South America closer together in point of time than ever before in history, was announced here today by J. M. Eaton, general traffic manager of Pan-American Airways, Inc., the operating company for Aviation Corporation of the Americas. The huge airway project of which the West Indies system, one of the three main divisions, will be in complete operation early in January, will provide two direct routes to South America. Thence the route leads down the east coast to Fernambuco, Brazil, and on down the west coast to Valpairaiso, Chile, and thence to Buenos Aires, Argentina. From this point two lines go direct to the Panama Canal Zone and a direct line from Merida, Yucatan, on the main route through Central America to Panama, to Brownsville, Tex., through principal cities of Mexico.

West Indies Line Starts Jan. 9 The West Indies division begins operation on Jan. 9 and extends from Miami to Nassau in the Bahamas, to Havana on a direct line, and, via Havana, Camaguey, and Santiago de Cuba. Port Au Prince, Haiti, Santo Domingo City, Dominican Republic, to San Juan, Porto Rico. One of the South American links will be an extension of this route, continuing from San Juan via the Leeward and Windward Islands, to Trinidad and thence down the east coast of South America, via the three Guianas and Brazil, to Pernambuco. The second direct line, serving the entire west coast of South America, will be an extension of the Central American division already under contract with the United States Pcstoffice Department and extending from Miami to Havana, Yucatan, British Honduras, Honduras, Micaragua, Costa Rica, and Colon, in the Panama Canal Zone. Continues Eastward From this point it will continue eastward via Columbia and Venezuela to meet the east coast route at Trinidad and, from Colon, on down the west coast, from Merida, Yucatan, on this system. Pan-American Airways, Inc.,, jointly with Compania Mexicana De Aviacion, S. A. is now completing a survey for a route to Vera Cruz, Mexico City, and Tampico to Brownsville, Tex., providing the first

Verdict of the Stage ENGLISH’S—“The Desert Song” is one of the best all round entertainments we have had in five years here. Splendid company. Deserves capacity at every performance. LYRIC—The boys in the dancing act headed by Katherine Boyle are excellent dancers and fine chaps to carry on the act when the star of the act was too ill to dance at a performance Monday afternoon. MUTUAL—Chuck Wilson and Betty Abbott have about all the qualities necessary to make a burlesque show interesting, and succeed admirably in “Social Maids.”

What Dr. Caldwell Learned in 47 Years Practice

Dr. Caldwell watched the results of constipation for forty-seven years, and believed that no matter how careful people are of their j health, diet and exercise, constipation will occur from time to time regardless of how much one tries to avoid it. Os next importance, then j is how to treat it when it comes. Dr. Caldwell always was in favor of getting as close to nature as possible, hence his remedy for constipation, known as Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, is a mild vegetable compound. It can not harm the most delicate system and is not a habit forming preparation. Syrup Pepsin is pleasant-tasting, and youngsters love it. It does not gripe. Thousands of mothers have written us to that effect. Dr. Caldwell did not approve of drastic physics and purges. He did not believe they N were good for human beings to put into their system. In a practice of forty-seven years he never saw any reason for their use when a medicine like Syrup Pepsin will empty the bowels just as promptly, more cleanly and gently without griping and harm to the system. Keep free from constipation! It robs your strength, hardens your arteries and bring on premature old age. Do not let a day go by without a bowel movement. Do not sit and hope, but go to a druggist and get one of the generous bottles of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. Take the proper dose that night and by morning you will feel like a different person. Use for yourself and members of the family in constipa-

SUFFERINGS OF 12 YEARS ENDED BY NEW KONJOLA Intense Distress From Stomach and Kidney Troubles Completely Conquered by Herbal Medicine. Konjola is not a medicine of promises, a medicine that makes wild claims or works on unstaple theories. It has been proven that it is a compound of accomplishments, one that does all that is claimed for it. Containing 32 Ingredients, 22 of which are the juices

from roots and herbs, Konjola 18 a medicine wholesome and pureone that Nature herself would recommend. There are no heart depressants, nerve deadening drugs, • alcohol or narcotics in this comI pound. It is being explained every day to large crowds of people by the Konjola Man who is at the Hook Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, this city. Among the people who call on him are those who have already been benefited. Take, for instance, the case of Mrs. Ethel Johnson, R. R. No. 4, Box 330 E, Indianapolis, who made the following remarkable statement: “To think that twelve years of suffering was ended by a single medicine sounds almost unbelievable, • but when you realize the unusual merits of Konjola—that is a different matter,” said Mrs. Johnson, “and that is exactly what Konjola has done for me. “Three ailments caused me intense distress at all times. They were stomach, liver and kidney troubles. I really don’t know where to begin to tell you about them, and since I have been so wonderfully relieved I hate to think about all the suffering I went through. Night rising to the extent of seven or eight times was a certainty every time I went to bed. But that frequent jaction of my bladder did not only take place during the night—but in daytime as well. It became a harrowing experience to leave the house. I never knew when a spell might come on. Meals were no pleasure. Food never digested •right and always brought on some sort of misery. Doctoring and taking medicines failed to relieve my sickness. I was discouraged, tired, worn-out and rundown. I got to the point where I really did not care what became of me and there was no enjoyment in life. “Yet I could not avoid the fact that Konjola has certainly produced some amazing restorations to health in Indianapolis, let alone the entire state of Indiana. Wondering if it would do anything for me and without a great deal of hope I began the treatment. Do you think you could ever understand the surprise and pleasure that awaited and greeted me when I started the treatment? Without any loss of time Konjola went right to the source of my troubles. It regulated the organs and system. A warm glow of health permeated throughout my body. My stomach regained a normal and healthy condition before I hardly knew what was taking place. My kidneys were next to be worked upon and soon they were strengthened so that sound and refreshing sleep was mine for the first time in twelve years. Six bottles of Konjola did me more good than all medicines put together. What can I say to praise Konjola, what words are expressive enough? My advice to all sufferers is to give Konjola a trial. lam talking from experience.” The Konjola Man is at the Hook Drug Store, Illinois and Washington streets, this city, where he is meeting the public daily, introducing and explaining the merits of this medicine. Konjola is sold at all Hook stores in Indianapolis and vicinity.—Advertisement.
